What is forming?
Metal forming is the process of pouring molten metal into molds and shaping it. Common methods of metal forming include:
- Sand casting - Pouring molten metal into sand molds to solidify into shape.
- Die-casting - Injecting molten metal under high pressure into metal molds to shape it.
- Gravity casting - Also known as permanent mold casting, it involves filling metal molds with molten metal using gravity to shape it.
- Lost wax casting - Also known as investment casting, pouring molten metal into wax molds to shape it.
- Forging - Using molds and applying high temperature and pressure to deform aluminum into the desired shape.
- Extrusion - Using molds and applying pressure to force aluminum through openings to shape it.
The choice of forming method depends on the material, the final application of the workpiece, and the quantity of production. WKPT has decades of experience in metal forming and integrates both in-house and external resources to provide a wider range of metal forming services of various materials, creating value for the mass production of metal parts.
